To watch:Lincoln. Joe and I had a get-our-Christmas-tree and movie date on Tuesday. Tuesday nights the Carmike cinemas do a special deal with cheaper tickets and popcorn and soda specials. I came home and had to pull my copy of “Leaves of Grass” off the shelf because so many of Whitman’s poems in that book were inspired by the Civil War. Also, I really want to know what pattern the quilt was in one of those final scenes when Thaddeus Stevens crawls into bed. (I also can’t wait for the Les Mis movie!) Small screen style, Joe and I finished the first season of Homeland this week. So. Good.
